Default Cragar 17*9 vibration at 110km/h

Dear Jeepers,

I have the a/m problem.
I checked the balance of wheels twice.
At less or higher speed all is ok.
Tyres - bf at, 285

If you have the same pls let me know.

Many thanks in advance.

Only thing I can think of Is the tires being not balanced or a belt in the tire being broken making it cause this

I have stock wheels with spacers. Running 315_70_17 and have had them balanced twice. It still has a vibration. I guess keep getting them balanced as long as it doesn't cost you anything. Got a warranty with mine and if it doesn't work on rebalancing them this next time then I am gonna suggest they replace the tires

2 redunlimitedguy thanks for your opinion. I balanced it twice and really heavy weights were used both times but the same problem at the same speed repeated. I didn't understand how you put 305 tyres at standard wheels. I thought the maximum possible 285 for standard original mopar wheels.

Also I also still think that the problem is quality of tyres. So heavy weights for wheels means really bad quality of tyres...

Btw, my friend had the same problem at the same speed with Toyota Prado while using not original wheels.

Homme. They are 315s. They think it is my spacers causing the vibrations. I guess this weekend I will put my spacers on my moms jeep and see if it does the same3 thing. If not its back to sears to claim some new tires.
